Chapter 453: Battle Star
Chapter 453: Battle Star
Back in orbit around Mars.
Luo Lan directly ordered the Ship Design Bureau to start designing the third and fourth war stars.
Now that there is a way to obtain more planetary cores, battle stars are no longer independent luxury items.
According to Luo Lan's plan, the war star will be delegated to each fleet and serve as the fleet's flagship.
At the same time, Luo Lan also allows each battle star to have its own special style of fleet, so...
Before the design of a new battle star begins, the ownership of the battle star will be determined in advance, and the future owner will also participate in the design.
Of course, we are not asking Zhen to design the war star. After all, they don’t have the ability to do so, right?
However, they can tell the designer what features they want for their battle star, what colors to use, the interior decoration style, etc.
That’s right, this is what Luo Lan said, each fleet can have its own style of battle star.
Just like the great pirate era a few years ago, everyone's ships had a unique style.
As for the ownership of these two warships, Luo Lan has also decided it.
One boat belongs to Taotu and the other belongs to Tina.
After all, the First and Second Fleets are the two strongest fleets in King's Landing, and...
The two were also the first to follow Luo Lan.
Not to mention...
Your woman should be given priority, right?
No one objected to this decision. Even Akainu, whose eyes would light up whenever he saw the War Star, was exceptionally calm this time.
This made Luo Lan a little surprised.
The words that were originally prepared to comfort Akainu were of no use.
However, on that day.
Having found the opportunity, Akainu went directly to Luo Lan's office at the Mars Orbital Base for private communication.
"Marshal, I have no objection to handing these two warships over to Taotu and Tina. I just hope you can meet my one request that is not too excessive!"
"What's the request?"
Luo Lan raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
I knew that there must be something wrong with Akainu being so calm.
Look, isn’t it coming?
Let's hear what this guy wants to do...
"Marshal, I checked. The Poison Wolf Pirates are 10,000 light years away from us. According to the last model, it will take about three and a half months to deal with them. By that time, Taotu and Tina's two battle stars will have just been built. We can't leave the production line empty. That would be a waste, right? Why not..."
Good guy...
Luo Lan exclaimed, "What a good fellow!"
When did Akainu learn to speak like this?
He knew that even if he made a fuss, he would not get a share of the two war stars in this batch. After all, Taotu and Tina had much more seniority in King's Landing than he did.
So, we thought of using this method to target the next batch.
Even the reasons are so beautiful.
An idle production line is a waste of resources, right?
Akainu, you have changed!
In the past, you were not so smooth, but would just open your mouth and confront directly.
You like this...
I'm really not used to it, how about you recover?
Looking at Akainu who was rubbing his hands with a sly smile on his face.
Luo Lan complained in his heart.
"Okay, Senior Sakaski, please stop being so funny. I'm getting goosebumps!"
"Let me tell you this, why do you think Jonathan's Third Fleet didn't come back with us?"
"Indeed, it takes about three and a half months of warping from here to the Poison Wolf Pirates' lair, but it only takes two and a half months to go there from the Red Bull Pirates!"
Hearing this, Akainu's eyes brightened even more.
"Marshal, are you saying...Jonathan has passed?"
"That's right. Although you don't get a share of the battle star this time, but next time...don't worry, I'll make the decision. I'll refit your Fifth Fleet first!"
If Akainu hadn't still retained his last bit of sanity to maintain his consistent image.
Hearing this, I'm sure everyone would jump up and cheer, and maybe even do a 720-degree roll and slide down ten meters.
A few minutes later.
Akainu left contentedly.
But less than ten minutes later, someone knocked on Luo Lan's office door again.
When Luo Lan saw the person coming in, he raised his hand and covered his forehead.
"Marshal, there is something I want to discuss with you!"
At this moment, the person who appeared in Luo Lan's office was the current commander of the Fourth Fleet, Kuzan, codenamed Aokiji.
"Senior Kuzan, you are not here to suggest that I should not let the battle star production line idle to avoid wasting resources. So I should immediately send a fleet to the Poison Wolf Pirates' lair and seize their planetary cores while their main force is away. I can then continue to build battle stars when I return, right?"
"You are worthy of being the Marshal. You have already guessed it before I even said it!"
He scratched his head and said with a little embarrassment.
How could he not understand that the excuse he had been thinking of for a long time was directly seen through by Luo Lan.
He even said it before me.
It's so embarrassing.
But, for the sake of War Star, no matter how embarrassing it is, I have to persevere!
"You guys really are..."
Um, you guys?
Suddenly, when Ku Zan heard Luo Lan's words, he felt something was wrong for no reason.
But for the moment, I couldn’t tell how bad the situation was.
"Okay, Jonathan is on his way. If there is a planetary core in the Poison Dragon Pirates' lair, it will be transported back in about two and a half months."
"If there are two of them, one of them will definitely be your battle star!"
Hearing this, Aokiji was overjoyed.
But the next moment...
He realized something about Luo Lan's wording just now.
"Marshal, two?"
"Yes, two. After all, I promised Senior Sakaski that I would give him the hunting suit first."
Luo Lan nodded and explained.
"In fact, it doesn't matter which of the Fourth and Fifth Fleets goes first, but ah..."
"Sakaski-senpai came to see me ten minutes earlier than you, so..."
Inside the office.
Aokiji instantly turned into an ice sculpture.
In fact, he had wanted to come here to ask for this favor a long time ago.
However, I couldn't come up with a good excuse, so it took about half an hour.
result...
"Did that Akainu guy just come here?"
"Yes, otherwise how would I know what kind of excuse you are thinking of? After all, that's what Senior Sakaski said ten minutes ago..."
At this moment, Aokiji turned into an ice sculpture again.
------
Time goes back half an hour.
"Yes, that's right, it's to prevent the production line from being idle!"
"Yes, that's right. So we should set off immediately and try to grab another planet core back in three months, and then continue the construction!"
Somewhere in the super spaceport in the orbit of Mars.
Kuzan was concentrating on thinking about how to tell Luo Lan about this.
At the same time, because he was too focused, he didn't notice that in a corner not far away, there was a burly figure who was eavesdropping with his ears perked up.
The person who eavesdropped...
It was none other than Akainu.
After a while...
Akainu rubbed his chin.
"Well, Aokiji is still better in this area. This is a good excuse!"
The next moment, Akainu turned and left, heading towards Luo Lan's office...
Walk quickly!
